Using enip_server with FTView SE
I am trying to use enip_server with FactoryTalk View SE and cannot resolve the tag references. Whenever the client loads it shows the standard message for the tag not existing in the PLC.
We are able to communicate with the cpppo PLC using pylogix. The difference between these ways of communicating are that FTView uses the class number (eg. 0xb2) and pylogix uses the tag name (eg. FLOAT). Below is the CIP read traffic taken from wireshark using an FTView request vs. a pylogix request.
I am able to make a topic and browse to the cpppo PLC in FactoryTalk Linx Communication Setup and so do not understand why the tag does not read. Investigation in wireshark has shown that there are potential services that need to be implemented in order for this to work?
Further more the CIP connection times out and opens continuously. This may not be part of the issue (or an issue at all) but is something worth noting.
Does anyone have any experience doing something like this? Is this even possible? I would appreciate any advice at all with this issue. Cheers.
